1. Preface
This project is prepared by the students of class XXXX and it is based on
the Additional Mathematics textbooks, internet search and reference book.
Additional Mathematics is an elective subject in secondary school. Each student
who takes this subject has to carry out a project work on the given tasks. The
project work for the year 201X is about XXXXXXX. The aim of doing this
project is to improve the skills in using mathematics for students. Working on this
also gives a chance for students to apply their skills on what they had learnt to
solve an assigned project. Therefore, every student stands a chance to improve
their thinking skills, usage of languages and grammar as well as mathematics
skills throughout the project. After doing this project, student will be able to
master and understand more on the application of Additional Mathematics that
they learnt in their school syllabus. The student can also learnt some values during
the completion of the project such as to learn how to work together or to be
cooperative, improving their communication skills, responsibility and also not to
give up easily on the task given.
 2. Acknowledgement
First and foremost, I would like to thank my Additional Mathematics teacher,
Mr ===== as he gives us important guidance and commitment during this project
work. He has been a very supportive figure throughout the whole project.

I would also like to give thanks to all my friends for helping me and always
supporting me to complete this project work. They have done a great job at collecting
data from XXXXXXX. They are also sharing the information that they have with
other people including me. Without them, I may face difficulty to do this project and
would never have its conclusion.

Furthermore, I would like to express my gratitude to my beloved parents for

helping and encouraging me in the process of doing this project. At the end, I am
happy that my project can be completed successfully. They have always been by my
side and I hope they will still be there in the future.

Last but not least, I wish to thank all the students who have given me full support by
giving me their valuable data and cooperation, so that I manage to complete my
project in time.
 2. Acknowledgement
First of all, I would like to say Alhamdulillah, for giving me the strength and
health to do this project work.

Furthermore, I would like to thanks my parents for providing everything, such

as money, to buy anything that are related to this project work and their advice, which
is the most needed for this project. They also provide facilities such as internet, books,
computers and all that for me in order to complete this project. They also supported
me and encouraged me to complete this task so that I will not procrastinate in doing it.

I would like to thank my Additional Mathematics teacher, Ms XXXXXX for

guiding me and my friends throughout this project. We had some difficulties in doing
this task, but she taught us patiently until we knew what to do. She tried and tried her
best to teach us until we understand what we supposed to do with the project work.

Most of all, I would like to thank my group members, who always supports
me, guides me and even console me and sharing our ideas. We cooperated well doing
this project especially in discussion and sharing ideas, so we had this task done. This
allows us finish our task completely in just a blink of eyes.

Last but not least, I thank any party which involved either directly or
indirectly completing this project work. Although I have sacrifices almost 3 weeks to
complete this project work, but I enjoyed the moment I spent time with my friends,
families and teachers. Furthermore, I have improved myself in solving Additional
Mathematics’ problems and I learn from my mistakes. Thank You.

 6. Reflection

In the process of conducting this project, I have learnt that perseverance pays
off, especially when you obtain a just reward for all your hard work.

For me, succeeding in completing this project work has been reward enough. I
have also learnt that mathematics is used everywhere in daily life.

Besides that, I have learned many moral values that I practice. This project
work had taught me to be more confident when doing something especially the homework given by
the teacher. I also learned to be more disciplined student who is punctual and independent.

This project had taught me to be responsible on the works that are given to me to be
completed. This project also made me felt more confidence to do works and not give up easily when
we could not find solution for the question. I also learned to be more discipline on time, I pass up to
my teacher just in time. I also enjoyed doing this project after school as I spent my time with friends to
complete this project and it had tightened our friendship.
 6. Reflection
1. What I have learned during the implementation of this project
I have done many researches throughout the internet and discussing with a
friend who have helped me a lot in completing this project.

Through the completion of this project, I have learned many skills and
techniques. This project really helps me to understand more about the uses of
XXXX in our daily life.

This project also helped expose the techniques of application of additional

mathematics in real life situations. When conducting this
project, a lot of information that I found.

Apart from that, this project encourages the student to work together and share
their knowledge. It is also encourage student to gather information from the
internet, improve thinking skills and promote effective mathematical
communication.

Last but not least, I proposed this project should be continue because it brings
a lot of moral values to the student and also test the students understanding in
Additional Mathematics.

2. The good values that I have practiced during this project.

I have practised several moral values while carrying out this project work such
as self-discipline.

I have tried my very best to complete this project work without procrastinating
and hence managed to hand it in on time. This project had taught me to
responsible on the works that are given to me to be completed.

Nevertheless, I was hard working when doing this project and had spent most
of my time solving all the calculations patiently.

Besides, I have also practised teamwork with my fellow friends by sharing

ideas and information throughout the process of doing this project work.

By practising all these moral values, I have succeeded in completing this

project work of Additional Mathematics.
